[End of solo]
[Interlude 2]
I won't be the one you like, I won't be the boy next door, I won't be the chosen one.
That's not what I'm here for.
I don't like the way you are, I despise what you hold dear. Don't you try to make me change.
I'll haunt you for a thousand years.

I Went To See The Doctor
He Said, "You're Pretty Sick,
You Got Some Real Bad Habits,
You'd Better Stop Right Quick."
I Said "Doctor, That's Real Bad News."
Don't Know What I'm Gonna Do
Doctor
There's Nothin' Wrong With Me
Doctor, Doctor
Can't you see?
Doctor
I Ain't Gonna Die
Just Write Me An Alibi
I Went To See A Shaman
He Said "You'll Be Alright,
Just Keep Doin' What You Love,
Every Single Night"
I Said "That's What I Need To Hear"
Took Away My Childish Fears
Doctor
You're A Stand Up Guy
Doctor, Doctor

Doctor
You're The One For Me
That's The Mojo That I Need
Don't You Know That I Feel Alright?

That's What People Say
And I Ain't Gonna Waste A Second
Doin' What You Say
(Solo)
I Won't Be The One You Like
I Won't Be The Boy Next Door
I Won't Be The Chosen One
That's Not What I'm Here For
I Don't Like The Way You Are
I Despise What You Hold Dear
Don't You Try To Make Me Change
I'll Haunt You For A Thousand Years
Doctor
Don't You Talk That Way
Doctor
Don't You Mess My Day
Doctor
Stay Away From Me
Sick Is What I'd Rather Be
Doctor
Doctor, Doctor Death
